By A Cult Leader
Ever notice that trapdoor under the stairs of the training deck? The shiny skeletons are the key!

Afia
The first golden skeleton is in Afia's "Blink" tutorial. After you teleport past the first set of guards and climb the vines, teleport under the bow of the floating ship and blink again through the cracks of the boards.
Toya
In the "Shadow Step" tutorial, progress until you've past through the torii. Move Toya close enough to toss down the talisman and teleport to it.
Suleidy
At the very end of the "Wander Dust" tutorial, you'll see a floating platform the skeleton on it. I killed it before I started taking screenshots for this guide, but it's about where I threw the cover seeds. You'll need to hit the skeleton with the dust, run over to the canon, and shoot it.
Teresa
In Teresa's "Iron Judgment" tutorial, clear to the end. Click on the floating platform around the side of the tower to make her move, then snipe the skeleton from your better vantage point.
John
After killing the first enemy in the "The Below" tutorial, move John near the wall and anchor down.










Swivel the camera around to see a hidden platform and kill the skeleton (skelly not pictured bc I already got em)
Quentin
In Quentin's Challenge Room, clear the room with the two big boxes and make a quick save. Maneuver him to the smashed wall as pictured, and throw down your head. The golden skeleton will walk over to it, so quickly reel it up and stab the rotten skelly for being so greedy.
Gaelle (incomplete)
This is where I have to admit that I am not a pro-gamer who's 100% the game in 4 days. Apologies.
I do not know how to kill the next two golden skeletons.
In Gaelle's Challenge Room, it looks like you're supposed to use firecrackers to bait the skeleton to a spot where you can rope it up like in Quentin's room, but the skeleton just looks blankly at the explosion. If you figure this one out, tell people in the comments. I'm too lazy to update a guide I've already published.
Pinkus
This is the other one I haven't killed. In Pinkus' "Coin" tutorial, the skeleton is on a small, floating platform that appears to be impossible to reach. If the guards you posses were able to shoot, it would be simple, but for now, I don't know how it would be possible to kill this one.










And with that, I've given a mostly complete guide to every golden skeleton maybe. Perhaps there is a ninth skeleton that I haven't seen. After all, I haven't reached 85% completion. I hope this was at least a bit helpful.
A presto.

For Gaelle: At the starting location, go up to the first Book and then just use your recall across the big expanse on the skelly. Then shoot out the skelly near you and stab it

@Philadelphus : thanks a lot mate, I was struck on that one.

So, with the latest patch (as of September 12, 2023) the golden skeleton in Gaëlle's challenge room has moved to beneath the second batch of guards. You can reach him by jumping onto a small ledge (just past the first batch of three guards that you have to fight, opposite the cannons) by using Gaëlle's Kanol Recall skill. To kill him you'll either have to switch Gaëlle's melee attack to lethal, or possibly shoot him into the void (I didn't try that).

I managed to kill the golden skeleton in Gaelle's stage through a bug. 1. Enter the third stage and kill the three enemies; 2. Leave the third stage back through the entrance and enter the first stage; 3. Reach the Afia and use her to push down the ladder, and now you should be able to control Afia; 4.Fire Afia back to the ENTRANCE of the first level, control Afia to leave this stage. DO NOT clear the first stage as Afia will disappear.; 5. If you enter the third stage at this moment, there would be no skeleton, so you have to use Afia to clear the second stage first. Her upgraded teleport skill is useful here; 6. Go to the third stage and the skeleton should be there now. Teleport to the platform and kill it. Leave the stage through the Menu option.

Solution to the Pinkus one:
Toss a coin to the cannon

@Lady Neravin: Ah, no, just two so far. Thanks, didn't realize there was a threshold to reach.

There is a cannon next to the second guard of pinkus coin tutorial. Throw a coin on it and they will shoot the skeleton. Press LS to find out, which cannon it is. (psst... the middle one)

Did you kill 5? afaik that is the number needed

I killed a few golden skeletons, but the trapdoor remains un-interactable? Is there another step I have to do or something?
